not compatible with the XIM input protocol, must be use xcin-2.3 with xa
option.

I find a bug of BIG5TOUSC2.c ,You need modify /etc/X11/fs/config remove
the fontpath of chinese fonts and add the fontpath in /etc/X11/XF86Config,
else got wrong display.
And you need modify many config file about fontset.
I also find a bug with gtk+-1.2.6, gtkrc.zh_TW.Big5 don`t work , I made a
link to gtkrc.zh_TW.big5 ,than it ok.
